PINE RIDGE BOWLING Volusia STATS: The sophomore bowler rolled a six-game series of 1,243 to win the District 2 individual girls championship at Deltona Lanes. SIDELINES: Tilley is about to start another season with her dogs. She trains border collies for agility competitions when she's not at the lanes.

Ryan Tilley said a quick phone call helped her score her first 300 game in a victory against Seabreeze last week. "I called my dad during the second game struggling, and he gave me some pointers. I went off the sheet [nothing but strikes] in that second game and just kept going." Tilley had seven consecutive strikes for a 234 game and then 12 more in a row in her perfect 300 to complete a career-best 737 series. "I didn't really think about [300] because every time I do, I blow it. I just tried to perfect every shot to the best of my ability."

After two years of dogged research, Emily Tilley could only shake her head and the fading papers in her hands as though she expected the motion to shake free the necessary clue to propel her search. Nothing fell to earth. It was 1988, and Tilley ran her fingers through the duplicate manifests, marriage licenses and court records she'd collected in binders during the years. Then she turned to confront the musty records that mocked her from the table inside the Eastern Shore Room of the Eastern Shore Public Library in Accomac, Va. Praying to pry loose something she had missed, she again examined the evidence: Census records.
